This experience was LOVELY for the two of us! We almost don't want to give away the secret, but these owners and managers deserve the praise! The view and the porch area was amazing, and every detail was near perfection. It almost felt like we were in Greece with the pots and adorable white with blue doors :) It was SUPER clean, pretty, and incredibly well-stocked. They even have extra beach towels, sunscreen and bug spray (don't forget that!). The decor is fresh, and calming, and it smelled like a spa. The interior and exterior lighting was spot on. And the bed? Heaven. The perfect temperature and ultimate comfort at night.
The location is literally 5 minutes from the car ferry (highly recommend going on the ferry to St. Thomas in your Jeep), and shops/restaurants. We have been to St. John many times, and this is now our favorite. From check in to check out, we could not have been more pleased. We can't wait to go back! A++++

We booked a last minute trip, read the reviews (all 10/10) and were so thrilled with the Penthouse. The view when you open the door is amazing. The outdoor area looks over Cruz bay and is simply stunning. The condo was clean and well stocked with coffee, shampoo/conditioner/beach chairs/coolers etc. It was so nice to have everything right there! The bed was comfortable and towels were great. I love having a washer and dryer as well. The directions in were a little dicey at night but if you put in "island abode" into a GPS, it should take you there. You will want a jeep/four wheel drive. Sue was quick to respond. The island did lose power while were were there for about 12 hours but honestly it wasn't even that hot....The starfish market is very close for groceries, Low Key watersports is a good place to rent snorkling gear and a boat. The Refinery was great food (make a reservation). We loved all of the beaches but our favorites were Moho (for the turtles and fruity drink truck close by) and Hawksnest (for the reef and shady beach areas. Perfectly done.

This is a great unit! Location is about a five minute drive from town, high above the car ferry dock, and very close to Starfish Market if needed. It has an extremely large deck with gorgeous views of St. Thomas and the surrounding islands. The kitchen had everything we needed, including some basic supplies (water, coffee, sugar etc) to get us started, which was much appreciated. Beach supplies were also provided. We were sorry to only be on island for the weekend, as this was a great home base during our stay. Would definitely book again!

The home is everything we hoped it would be and more! The pictures are a good representation of this lovely, comfortable home. We loved the breathtaking views and the peaceful surroundings. The home is equipped with just about everything you will need including shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel which was a nice surprise. The kitchen is also well equipped with spices even some condiments. We did lose power for about 3-4 hours due to the rain. It would have been nice to have a lantern, we did not want to use our phones due to conserving battery power. There were a couple of very small flashlights. We went in October which is the rainy season. The sliding glass door near the front entrance leaks pretty bad with the heavy rain so there was a lot of water that came in during the heavy rains. We had to use the beach towels to soak up the water. That was the only issue we had however it would not deter us from staying here again.You definitely need a four wheel drive vehicle to get to this property. We highly recommend this gorgeous home.

From the moment we walked into the Penthouse, we were mesmerized by the view. We spent many mornings and evenings taking in the view while drinking our coffee or enjoying a cocktail. Beyond the view, the inside was clean, well appointed, and had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again!

Very nice amenities inside and out - we enjoyed watching the Iguanas 20-30 ft up in the trees right off the patio.

We had a wonderful 3-night stay in the penthouse at sunset serenades following several nights at cinnamon bay campground. The outdoor space was amazing and so much bigger than expected. The indoor space was clean and spacious and perfect for our family. Pull out worked well for our 9 and 11-year old and the king bed was very comfortable. We weren’t able to walk to Cruz bay but it was only a 5 minute drive so no problem. About 15 minute drive from honeymoon and trunk bay. we grilled one night and ate on the porch to enjoy the beautiful view. Had a visit from a curious orange cat while eating 😍. Highly recommend!

We stayed 6 nights in the Penthouse Suite at Sunset Serenade. The property has great views and a fantastic balcony. It's convenient to restaurants in Cruz Bay and the beach is just a short (and beautiful) drive away. We would love to stay here again!

This rental was amazing and the photos online don’t do the view justice. One of the most beautiful views from any property I’ve ever seen! The rental was nice and spacious. All the appliances were updated and the house was perfect. We will definitely be back again!

Wonderful view
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Clean, had everything you need for a St John adventure. Recommend getting a car to drive to town or have groceries delivered prior to arrival.

Outstanding
The Penthouse was gorgeous, clean, well appointed and the view was AMAZING! We enjoyed the huge terrace and the views day and night, just stunning. Everything was so clean when we arrived. The home had everything we needed, even a washer & dryer. We made great use of the beach chairs and small cooler, enjoying the quieter beaches of St John. Pieter was available and responded anytime we reached out and was so accommodating. Thank you for your hospitality. We feel lucky to have been able to spend time here and hope to be back soon.

Mothers Day on St John
My wife, 2 year old son and I took the ferry over from St Thomas for the weekend. The place was immaculate and my wife and 2 year old son loved it. Views from the balcony and living areas were perfect.
Beach chairs, coolers, noodles and anything you need for a day at the most amazing beaches around. Try them all!
We found a taxi right in Cruz Bay upon arrival and stuck with them the entire trip. Worked out perfectly. Jamari with Island Vybz Whipz!
Thanks again for the easy check in and check out process. Even offering to get us in early on arrival day after having guests check out the same morning.
Would come back in a heartbeat!

Perfect place to unwind
We had an absolutely wonderful stay on St. Johns and in the Fantastic Penthouse at Sunset Serenade Suites. The property was beyond what we expected. We loved the out door living space , the fantastic views and the proximity to town. The inside was clean, wonderfully decorated and had all the amenities we needed. We highly recommend this property to anyone who wants to unwind and enjoy the peace and beauty that the island has to offer.

Fantastic views in a sparkling property
Where do we start? The views are amazing. The property is better than the pictures describe. Everything was clean, modern, no surprises. Iguana neighbors in the trees nearby. Fun trip up the hill to get there (they’re warm you but it’s still hard to imagine how steep it is). We would come back on a moments notice of the opportunity arose.

Amazing honeymoon spot!
My husband and I loved our stay at the penthouse suite. The views were breathtaking from the massive balcony! We spent many hours on the balcony enjoying cocktails and the views. The suite itself was immaculate and included all the supplies we needed in the kitchen. The bedroom and bathroom were very spacious! Would return in a heartbeat!

Wonderful stay!
We had a great but short stay in St. John. The rental was wonderful and just as described. We appreciated the cooler supplied for out outing, and enjoyed evenings watching the sunsets and enjoying the night view over Cruz Bay. Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Proximity is Everything
The Penthouse at Island Abodes was a fabulous choice for us. So close to downtown Cruz Bay! The views were great especially with the evening sunset and lights of Cruz Bay and St Thomas. Everything you need is provided, even bottled water to get you started, coffee, snacks, reef safe sunblock and bug spray. We’ve stayed on St John 4 times before in different villas and never had this provided before. I will definitely share this penthouse info with others! Thank you for a great 8 days!!

What a fabulous view from what felt like the top of the island! Especially loved the huge terrace with plenty of seating and lounging and occasional breezes. New kitchen appliances and washer and dryer. Very comfortable king bed and sofa sleeper. Super clean and inviting space. Loved the rainfall showerhead and high-pressure hose (for feet) after days at the beach. WiFi good and reliable. The hosts thought of everything, right down to the reef-safe sunscreen, coolers, beach chairs, snorkels, beach toys and noodle. Stargazing from the corner deck at nearly the peak of the Perseids meteor shower was fantastic!

Our stay in the Island Abodes Penthouse was great.! The accommodations were excellent. We had plenty of room, it was comfortable, clean with all amenities that are needed. The balcony and view were amazing. It is best to rent a car. Basil was responsive and very helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Exceeds Expectations
The pictures do not do it justice! From the moment you unlock the door to the Penthouse, your jaw drops in awe and you just feel like you've entered a million dollar Penthouse in your favorite city. Island Abodes has thought of every possible thing when they outfitted this property. My group even went as far as to cancel our dinner reservations one night to stay on the deck and watch the absolutely breathtaking sunset and enjoy some cocktails. Would highly recommend booking!

Perfect location, perfect stay
We had such an amazing trip to St John, made even better with this VRBO and Peter’s hospitality. For those looking to be close to restaurants and nightlife but maintain privacy, this VRBO is the perfect stay. Walking distance to Cruz Bay, beautiful views from the apartment and property, access to a lovely pool (perfect for sunset swims), free laundry on the premises, and a full kitchen. We had such a lovely trip and hope to come back next year!

It was pristine,Very private from the other suites, large outside living area with an incredible view of Cruz Bay.From the covered porch we watched the ferries come and go bringing the people and cargo to the island.
